Let me introduce you to mixed LeadTar. And its friend Fire Blast.

I've already decided to use the classic Leadtar and DDM Latios.. The reason why I didn't do it straight away is that I wanted to keep the team ~simplish~ for the first run and adjust the finer points in the RMT forum. I trust you guys, ya know?

I am disappointed in you, Zystral and Chou Toshio.

Well, I'm positive on the changed Lati (I agree its current set kinda blows) and possibly Mixtar - another consideration I didn't implement the first time around - but I'm still a bit sceptical on Gliscor. People don't really switch away from it, and without Roost, well... Hach. Thankee for the...

Um... Non-weather in this context meaning that I have not specifically made the team to abuse weather, with Gliscor only having it because if I have both Tar and Glis on a team and I wouldn't use Sand Veil, it'd be stupid. And not to mention: It is extremely short-sighted to go without a...

Volcarona seems to be indeed easy to get up to +2. Someone once switched one into my Chandelure locked on Energy Ball. It then survived an Earthquake and KOed the perpetrator, then another fodder Pokémon before being stopped by Lucario's ExtremeSpeed. I don't want to think about what would have...

Come one, come all, and do help me out while you're here. This RMT shall be devoted to a Non-Weather Offense team I have codenamed AlphaBreak. Threat List: Offensive Threats Aerodactyl - Archeops - Azelf - Bisharp - Breloom - Chandelure - Cobalion - Conkeldurr -...

Exactly. (Though other examples are Gen IV 'Mence, Speed Boost Blaziken, and, as far as I know, Drizzle-SwSw.)

I'll bet right now that once the usage stats are up, we'll need the Blue Helms to keep the weather haters in check. So while I still have time to, I want to beg the aforementioned members of our society to act like Dick Cheney and go about their business quietly, and not explode and kill us...

No, you speak carefully. That is by far not the amount needed for being broken. I said you need to have no reason to use anything else in order to label something broken. There is a reason why I don't use it, and that's because it wouldn't have done my team any good. If it were broken, that...

I don't run it because I don't need it. 'nuff said. "Weather" is not a single entity. There are four weather effects, each of which have multiple ways of using, and I say using because adding the "ab-" before it gives it bad stigma already. Also non-weather offense is perfectly capable of...

You've both got it wrong (Raikaria more, however), and once again, I redirect to the PR forums. The idea is to not ban anything unless it is utterly outclassing everything else, which defines itself by the following rule of thumb: When something is so powerful there is no reason to use anything...

Dear Curtains, There is a thread in the PR forums that is called "Characteristics of a desirable metagame", written by DougJustDoug. What does it say there, you ask? In layman's terms: We don't care about your whims or your fun, no bans unless the fate on the game hangs on them. The thread...

Please come over to Switzerland and fix our political system that incorporates exactly this, but doesn't exclude people from voting rights.

I think at this point the only course of action left for me is to apologize for my soul-numbing stupidity and assure you it's not going to happen again.
